The Rib office

We went to the Rib-off today, or Rib-office, as Ashton calls it. What a disaster! It was at the fairgrounds this year, and was dirty, hot, far and expensive. The music was so loud that it terrified Ash, who was literally shaking as he covered his ears and ran. We weren't there for more than twenty minutes before we decided to cut our losses and head home. Considering that I don't even like ribs that much, I don't think we'll be back.
Lots of little things are happening, but nothing is going on here that trumps Derk's news. Louisa is here(!), and we miss her before we've met her.
